GO Product Launch Campaign

Marketing

In Spring 2023, McGraw Hill launched a new platform, McGraw Hill GO, an intuitive eBook+ that provides streamlined access to educational resources and tools for both students and instructors. I led the development of a comprehensive multichannel campaign designed to increase brand awareness, stimulate engagement, and cultivate a user base. Informed by audience research, my creative team and I produced a diverse suite of assets, including a website, landing pages, an explainer video, paid media, email campaigns, guided demonstrations, editable leave-behind postcards, printed collateral, and a webinar series.

Performance:

  • 143 qualified takeaways
  • 47 current user conversions
  • 7.25% web conversion rate via LMS selection
  • 2:00 average time spent on Storylane click demos
  • 43% demo engagement rate (users who clicked at least once)
  • High CTRs driven by curiosity-based taglines (e.g., “Greenlight your learning”)

How we reached our goals:

  • Launched a hero video that anchored email, social, and web efforts
  • Deployed a targeted three-part email series moving users from intro to conversion
  • Featured interactive click demos to showcase product functionality
  • Added book covers and course-specific messaging to emails to boost relevance

  • Maintained consistent creative and branding across all channels
  • 70% of surveyed instructors rated themselves Likely or Extremely Likely to use GO
